I probably do. I have only just started enduros and large events since paid entry was never appetising for me when i was too young to have a job.
Just shout "on your left" then pass on the right. 😉

hmmm 😛 i have done a fair bit since 😉
Flipiin eck that filled up quickly!!
I got in luckily... but none of my fellow riders.... 🙁
981st late last night......
Hopefully it'll be as good as last year. Superlight this year instead of Cross bike. I learnt my lesson 😉
See you all in April...
About 67th in the waiting list. Doubt there will be that Many cancelations though.
Think I've missed it this year, but I might do its on-road cousin, the [url= http://www.aukweb.net/cal/index.htm ]Cotswold Corker[/url], which was great fun last year.
Bugger! I guess not.
Looks like I'll be doing the MTB-Marathon instead.

As did Leon, Huw and Andy, unless of course they have other things on.
Dan - if you're 67th in waiting I think you might be lucky. There was lots of activity in the "transfer market" on the run up to the event last year

Hwe will be interested to hear that he's Welsh now.
I'm a bit gutted, 'cos the route keeps getting better, and rolling in the LVIS posse last year was great fun, but it's all about the [url=
[/url]this year. 😉

Chinese Welsh, obviously 🙄
Unfortunately the LVIS Audax is touch and go for me, dependent on the new arrival.
What tyres would you recommend for this event. I'm assuming my mud x wouldn't be much cop
a few years since i last did it, i can't be doing with pre-entering. used Conti XC1.5's, or Panaracer Fire 1.8s. There is a fair bit of road work so don't do it on 2.5's if you have a choice.
I have done most of the route variations on Vredestein Fortezza Tricomps, The hailes abbey decent was interesting 😯
Leons in as I had a spare place up for grabs.
If anyone else has a spare place I think anotherdeadhero (Andy L) would be interested.

Semi slicks, I use a WTB Nano raptor / vulpine combo pumped up to 55 psi.
Wait till April, ask then.
Could be hard packed or knee deep in mud.

it all depends on the wife, were either going to whistler for the last of the snow or she's riding round the cotswold's with me, depends if she wants the holiday more than an entry for HONC. only time will tell.
Just heard that they may be not using printed directions as in past years, instead the route is to be signposted throughout, hope this is not the case, getting lost is half the fun 🙄
That is correct, there will be no instruction sheet this year,
not that any one read the thing.
cue sheets are far better than marker boards, especially when your brother-in-law does an extra 9 miles because he blindly followed a dozen other muppets and didn't get the map or cue sheet out of his pockets all day. 🙄
Graham - will you be publishing the route in advance as normal ? I know most of the area and like to get it in my head beforehand...and have a few (legit) off-tarmac detours where I can fit them in.
